SwaddleDesigns offers a full range of sleeping sacks in a variety of fabric types to keep your baby comfortable any time of year. The wearable blankets known as zzZipMe Sacks feature an innovative 2-way zipper which makes diaper changes easy! Designed by a nurse and mom, SwaddleDesigns sleep sacks are non-weighted which comply with the American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep recommendations.
SwaddleDesigns zzZipMe Sacks feature a zipper guard for baby’s comfort and to protect baby’s skin. They have large loose foot area for full range of motion of legs. zzZipMe Sacks are great because they are wearable blankets that cannot get kicked off ensuring baby stays cozy all night long.
The chart below will help you to select the right sack depending on the ambient temperature of baby’s sleep environment. For example, if your winters are cold you would want to select one of our Cozy zzZipMe Sacks.
How to select the best sleep sack for baby? Use the TOG chart above. First, consider when baby will be using the zzZipMe Sack. Will it be in the Springtime, Summer, Autumn or Winter? Think about the sleeping sack as a wearable blanket. If you alter the bedding on your adult bed with the change of seasons, you will want to choose the right fabric for baby’s zzZipMe Sack.
For example, if you live in a climate with seasons, and baby’s room gets cold at night, consider one of the Cozy styles or Baby Velvet.
However, if you live in a climate that is warm year-round, you would most likely just need cotton muslin sleep sacks, and perhaps some cotton flannel or cotton knit for when environmental temperatures decrease in winter.
The TOG number mentioned on the chart represents a level of thermal resistance. The higher the number the warmer the sack. The TOG numbers are used as a general guide when dressing your baby for sleep. Every baby is a bit different, so it’s best to touch and feel your baby’s chest, back or tummy to ensure they are not too hot or too cold but comfortably warm, so they can sleep well.
